  1. GREAT work!!! It's about time to work together against ABUSE in any form. THAT'S what PRISON is for.

  2. This is geared to help sexu@l trafficking victims as well because the pimps have to keep the victims looking good for their clients.

  3. Trans women please take over

  4. What about a bill to punish abusers whether it be emotional, psychological or physical. All abusers do is move on to their next victim.

  5. This was trending 10 years ago so what is happening to where it has to be placed on the books now. Abusers come from all backgrounds and it should be known that they sometimes have police backing. The military and police are high on the list of domestic batterers and is overlooked. Senators are good to want this to be in effect but how can you make the law work and make cases stick when you have forces that you should be able to trust keeping justice from taking place. Senators need to dig deep and look into judges also and question why abusers break protection orders.

  6. As a hairstylist we are good people. Mostly kind and willing to help, but Fauci and Biden's handling of the Covid caused our beauty shops to close leaving us without jobs, at least that's what happened to some of our salons.

  7. This is interesting because a Salon can be also be a place to gossip as well. I feel this a judgement call not a legislative bill🤔 it like CPS for adults.

  8. This is an idiotic idea. People should not be required to involve themselves in someone else's poor life choices. DV is dangerous and we don't need innocent people getting hurt.

  9. 1:23 Can somebody please explain to me how domestic abuse can cause thinning hair.

  10. Great legislation from the two senators. This will save lives. These are the things that make me proud of bipartisanship.

  11. I guess calling 911 isn't a option anymore . What a waste of time and money are politicians are wasting

  12. And yet no Bridges, Highways,pipeline, houses,jobs,homeless,and political corruption… but hey as long we got this 👍🏽
